COUNTRY LIVING LONDON CHRISTMAS FAIR 2025

I have attended the Christmas fair at Islington several times and was expecting the same high standard but what a disappointment. Even at the entry it was scaled down , with Christmas trees and pres...ent boxes spread out to try and make it look full. Even some of the stall spaces were filled with Christmas deco rather than sellers. The Food market, normally one of my favourite bits, lost its impact as it was incorporated in with craft. Brown paper ‘goodie’ bags containing mostly flyers were impersonally handed out as you left the venue rather than arrival. Will not be attending again. Leer más

I attended the country living fair today 16 November 2024. What a disappointment. It seems now they have merged with good housekeeping, too much aimed at talks, etc. Hardly any stalls, last year ther...e were loads of stalls downstairs as well as on the tip tier and also food stalls were missing this year. The focus on Christmas.fayre was totally missing. At £25 a head, a complete rip.off. you could look round the whole fayre in an hour. Such a shame. Organisers re think your bad organisation and change it back to the way it works. Leer más

this christmas fair 2024 at a cost of £25 each was the worse fair ever, so disappointed, one floor only and that was squashed, you could have done this fair in a couple of hours easily, mostly beaut...y, candles and bit of jewellery, def not worth it and not a christmas fair, years gone by three floors and christmas feel, lower your stall prices!! and maybe the crafters and trades might come back, we wont!

So disappointing . Haven’t been for several years and this was nothing like how it used to be . Decorations were sparse and pretty poor . Lacking in atmosphere . Used to be so much better .

DISAPPOINTED- THOUGHT IT WOULD BE BIGGER AND BETTER. FAR FROM IT.
